Meta Platforms, under the leadership of CEO Mark Zuckerberg, is intensifying its efforts to secure top artificial intelligence (AI) talent. The company has adopted unconventional recruitment strategies, such as offering jobs to candidates without the standard interview process and relaxing its stance on not increasing compensation for employees who consider leaving. Zuckerberg has taken a personal approach in these efforts, notably writing directly to AI researchers at Google's DeepMind to persuade them to join Meta. This aggressive recruitment push underscores Meta's commitment to advancing its AI initiatives amid a competitive landscape.
